I'm in New York. The event starts in about 90 minutes at The Morgan Library. If I can, I'll try to post at the event.

Actually, go to Amazon's home page and scan down the left side where it shows the different stores. The Kindle store says 'Kindle 2' and it goes to the new device page.

I don't understand this comment:
Jeff bezos on stage, says kindle books more than 10 percent of their ebook sales


I should hope that Kindle books take more than ten percent of their ebook sales.

Switched, much better than gizmodo.

10% of all units sold are kindle books. Makes more sense. 230k, is that Kindle book sales or Kindle units?
